in reply to Detecting failures easily/obviously with cpanm
cpanm -q Module::Name can help. The -q (aka --quiet) flag reduces the output to list only the distribution installs attempted, and their success or fail status.
Typically what I do though is just re-run the cpanm command again, as it'll skip over all the successful dists, and focus squarely on the failed ones making them easy to identify.
